Busy Season

There is a lot to be said for busy season. It is a great time to get reacquainted with our customers from last year. This is the most important element to a business being successful. How many have returned? The economy has changed statistics dramatically over the past 3 years. Right now it is hard to determine how many is an accurate figure. The good news is we are getting customers who have not been here since 2007. Most returning customers have stated the economy being the #1 reason why they have not been tanning. There are happy reasons too: having babies, getting married, or just staying too busy. Either way we are glad for everyone who is returning.

Satisfaction On Prices

So, some preferred clients are giving us a chance. Here is what they are saying: “Wow, my last bottle of tanning lotion cost me $60.” We saved them $35. 'Domination' is a new lotion by Supre-FOR MEN ONLY, but some ladies are digging it too. “Wow, we get an additional 25% off lotions? My discount is now 40% off with my membership. That is great!” I have brought back lotion from Fiesta Sun. This was always popular here. Now, the manufacturer gives twice as much lotion for the same price as two years ago. Pink Pineapple Tini is a great lotion. It works well and has no bronzer. That is unusual. It also smells good even after tanning! This year I hope that you will not purchase lotion from Walmart or Sally’s because we need your support! Thank you!

Forgive me

Ok, so I was a little harsh with the feelings in my last blog. I want to make it up to you by being a little easier with this message. GIVE US A CHANCE-that’s all. Tell your salon that you purchase your indoor tanning lotion on line, and see if they will match it. At least bring a copy of what you can purchase, so they can see it for themselves. They do not have time or the energy to look up everything purchased on line. Please consider this when not consulting your salon before purchasing on line. Remember, your salon has all the overhead expenses. Hasn’t electricity gone up? And I just heard that it is going to increase in price again. Isn’t it nice if it is cold outside to tan in a nice, warm room. How about if it is miserably hot outside? Wouldn’t it be nice to have a cool environment to tan? Ahhh, what would we do without air conditioning? It does not do you any good to have indoor tanning lotion and not have a place to tan! THANKS!

Support your local salon!

I hate Internet sales! Oops did I just say that? Well, it is how I feel, and I hope that I will convince you to stop putting the small business executive (I like that) out of business!
I can only speak for the industry, tanning, that I represent. Tanning lamps are very expensive to replace. I recycle all old lamps and their cardboard shipping containers. This is additional work, not to mention gas for the vehicle, but I love my country, and I do my part to care for it. So, if you buy lotion from the salon where you tan you are supporting all the good things they want to incorporate. It might even bring prices of tanning down. Did you ever think of this before you purchased that tanning lotion on line? Please support your salon buy purchasing lotion from them. Thanks!
